Anyone know what boat this is?

This was taken early 70's, possibly Lake Cachuma.
It was my dads boat and Chevy Malibu. All I remember was a giant 50hp Johnson and an emblem on the boat that said "dotline", not sure if that was the manufacturer.

Doesn’t that look kinda wide for a 50. My buddy who’s father had wads Of money used to have a 71 Glaston ( like in the James Bond Movie) GT 160 had an 85 Johnson on it. It looked just like that size wise. What a beast, went well over 50 and would leave boats with 110s in the dust with ease. Pass everything but a gas station. In the early 70s. His father owned an oil company and he was always broke. We used to ride him that he was the only rich guy on the planet with less money in his wallet than we did. That engine sure has that short squat of that 85, I think it was either a V4 or V6.
